  • I seem to be getting a bit adicted to challenges!! i like the sound of this one so will give it a good go!! I have lots i could sell on Ebay so will have to sort them out, including some stuff i got from Avon freebies, I am sure i can find some presents etc and also have a £50 theater voucher that i was given last xmas so really dont think im going to use so will also list that! I do the daily clicks so will have to keep a eye on what money is from the free clicks and not cashback! And i also do the free bingo so that will all help!!
    of to think of some more ways to earn free money!!!

    Wow - everyone's coming up with some great ideas :D :T

    :hello: and welcome to any new challengers

    BlueSky333 - I'm going to see how exhausted I am at the end of this challenge before I commit to starting a new one :p last time I got myself so obsessed by it I ended up staying up til 1a.m every morning so was shattered :o

    abby1234519 - I'm happy to be your mentor, please send me a PM if you have any questions. I can e-mail over a copy of the spreadsheet I'll be using to total the money made if it helps?

    I can't believe people are getting off the mark already :cool::T:j:D

    I'm not going to do anything towards the challenge tonight as I'm shattered but did advertise Avon on the intranet at work and have been asked for books by 4 new customers :j I'm counting it as money for nothing because you don't pay for the goods until you've received the money from the customers so there's no outlay :D

    I also kinda cheated a little :o I've bought 5 things in the sales which I will buy off myself when I've made enough money for nothing to sell on ebay ... hope noone minds.

    Tomorrow I'm going to start drafting an ad for translation services.

    Very busy day today: I have made my first £1 and then some!
    1. Sign up to forever friends website for free through topcahback TCB=50p
    2. kelkoo search wit TCB =2p
    3. TheHighStreetWeb search with TCB= 4p
    4. 10p on free scratchcard at virgin bingo
    5. joined yahoo bingo. Inputed promo code YHPB it gave me £3.10 free play instead of £1. Played a free scratchcard. won 10p. Played £3 worth of bingo (25p games, odds of winning better as not many people play these) won £7.50. Withdrew my £10 and lost bonus money (never mind). Had £4 left 'active money' Played another few games, but lost a few. Played a few more. Ended up with £5 'active' money. Won £5 so now at £10 and haven't spent a penny of my own money- tomorrow I will play another free scratchcard and withdraw my £10, leavng 10p in the account to carry on the free scratchcards.

      WILL NOT BE TEMPTED TO KEEP PLAYING!!!

      (well, i am tempted, but i will not give up this £10!!)
    So: total for today £10.66, with 10p from yesterday= £10.76:j

    feel free, hope it works for you too :D jut don't spend any of your own money! I found that if I buy £3.50 worth at a time you win between £5 and £7.50 (beween £1.50 and £4 profit) There are usually about 15 pople playing a game, unlike the cheaper 10p and 1p games etc where hundreds of people are playing!!

    Please don't shout at me if it doesn't work! It is a gamble..I may have been totally flukey, and I'm not gonna try again!! lol
